Sookie POV

"Sookie," Eric calls out to me. He must have noticed that I spaced out for a bit. Before we go any further there is something I need to. I ask Eric to 'hold that thought' and I run into the kitchen. I pick up the phone dialing Bill's cell. He doesn't answer, as usual, so I leave him a message.

"Bill this is Sookie. I hate to do this over the phone but as you're never available to me I have no other choice. I realized today that I don't like the way you've been treating me and I don't have to put up with it, so we're done. I'm not in love with you anymore. Maybe I haven't been for a while now but I wanted to make things work with you. Why? I don't know. You're never around when I need you and you push me off on Eric every chance you get. This time you pushed hard enough. Don't call me, don't email me, don't come to my apartment, nothing. I don't want to see you again. I guess…" BEEP! Shit. I'm sure he got the message.

I don't want to waste anymore time on him so I hang up the phone with a new resolve and head back into the living room to be with the man that I love. Huh, the man that I love--my best friend, my Eric.

He stands there waiting for me, in the same place that I left him, looking as if it is his first time laying eyes on me. I feel different and it must show. I think I needed to let go of Bill, finally. I feel like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders and I'm free.

Eric smiles in reassurance and I walk over to him. Taking me into his arms he leans down to kiss me. He takes my breath away. I kiss him back with just as much fervor and lean into his embrace. We make our way back to my bedroom. My heart is pounding away in my chest and I relish in the feeling of adrenaline coursing through my veins.

I think I have wanted this but was denying myself because of my love for Bill--or what I thought was love. I move to pull the sheets back on the bed, my nerves making their presence known. Eric must have seen my hands shaking.

"Come here," he beckons me. Eric reaches his hand out to me and I take it. My feet slide forward taking the two steps between us so that my body is mere inches from his. He leans in to close the distance between us, tracing my bottom lip with his tongue. It tickles and I laugh into his mouth. He pulls back to look at me, lifting my chin so that our eyes meet.

"Don't be nervous. We'll take it slow." His words comfort me and I calm down. He leans in to kiss me again. I break away inhaling a much needed breath and he smiles at me.

I am lost in his smile and do not want to be found. His succulent pink lips, bright white teeth, and that tongue…oh the things I imagined he could do with that tongue. I would get wet just watching Eric lick his lips. I know he doesn't know the affect he has on me but…back to that tongue.

His tongue fights for dominance with mine and I am happy to let it claim my mouth as his. I wrap my arms around his neck a little tighter as he pulls me into his 6'4" frame. His hands slide down my legs to grip the area just behind my knees. He lifts me and I squeeze my thighs together to hold on to his waist, hitching my knees around his hips.

His hands slide up my thighs, stopping at my ass. He gives it a little squeeze and I jump, grinding into his throbbing bulge. He moves me up and down a little groaning into my neck. He nibbles, sucks, licks, sucks…I move against him enjoying the friction we are creating.

"Oh, Eric," I moan. He feels so good against me, turning me on to the point of combustion. I can't take it anymore. His tongue against my neck, teeth nibbling my shoulder, him working my center into a pulsing, clenching, dripping pool of…

"Ungh. I need to feel you now. I want you inside of me. I feel like I'm going to explode if you don't take me now!" I feel him smile into my neck.

"I've never seen this side of you before Sookie. I think I like it."

He walks us over to the bed and gently lays me back, kissing my forehead, then backing away. He stands at the edge of the bed, watching me, watching him. His hands work their way up his lapels to his shoulders. Gripping the fabric in his hands, he pulls his jacket off and lets it slide down to the floor.

Taking his time, moving so slowly that it feels like time has stopped, he unbuttons each button of his shirt. I am so turned on by watching him that I want to rip the buttons off with my teeth and devour him whole.

He shirks the offending garment off of his shoulders and I cannot hold back any longer. I slide forward to the edge of the bed and pull on his sleeves, taking his shirt off by the cuffs. He chuckles at my eagerness.

"Patience lover, I'm not going anywhere. I want to take my time with you. I have dreamt of this moment for so long and I do not want to rush. I want you to want me so badly that you can't contain yourself. I want you to lose control. Will you lose control for me Sookie?" His voice is husky, laced with want.

"Eric if you don't get those pants off and get your ass on this bed you will see me lose control and I don't think you'll enjoy it one bit." The right side of his mouth turns up into that sexy smirk of his. I want to lick and kiss it right off of his face. Mmm…

I feel myself melt. I'm a puddle of love waiting for him to dive into me and swim in my essence. My eyes wander past his lips to his neck, down to his beautifully muscled torso. His sculpted chest and abs look like the work of a great artist. Any woman lucky enough to see Eric without a shirt on should not take it for granted. He is magnificent--the epitome of sexy. My hands seem to have a mind of their own as they work their way up Eric's arms, over his shoulders, and down his torso.

The feel of his chest beneath my hands is amazing. His firm muscles flexing under my touch, his warm, soft skin igniting my desire for him. I tweak his nipples with my fingers which elicit a delectable moan from him. My tongue can't wait to taste his skin. I nuzzle my face into his neck, kissing down his chest until I reach his nipple. I lazily draw circles around the dark pink flesh, flicking at the little bud gently. Repeating the motion as his moans increase.

"Bite a little," he whispers. I flick his nipple once more making it hard enough to grab with my teeth. I bite down, tugging gently and releasing it. I wrap my lips around it sucking and working it over with my tongue. His moans get louder and I turn my attentions to the other one.

My hands move all over his body not wanting to neglect any part of him. I lean back taking a breath and look him over. My eyes follow the trail of golden hair leading down to his, mmm…I trace the contours of his six pack, over to the junction of his hip and leg. I tease the flesh there with my tongue, while moving my hands further down his legs. I drop to my knees, my tongue gliding over the smooth skin of his hips, as I reach for his belt.

He brings his hands to my head, running his fingers through my hair. I take one of his fingers into my mouth sucking and licking as I pull it out slowly, teasingly. I plunge my mouth down on it again twisting my tongue around his fingertip. His eyes glaze over and his head falls back.

"Fuck Sookie!"

I release his finger moving my hands back to his pants. I unbuckle his belt, then his pants before he grabs my hands stopping me. I look up at him, my hair falling behind my shoulders as he pulls my face up to meet his. He's so gentle with me. He kisses me like it's the first time our lips have touched.

I can barely feel the heat from his breath as his lips pass over mine. His tongue glides over my mouth painstakingly--bottom lip, top lip, bottom lip--nibbling, pulling it into his mouth, sucking and licking until I claim his mouth with my own.

My hand brushes against his erection causing him to groan. I shiver at the thought of what he will feel like inside of me and plunge my hand into his pants, stroking his hardened member from base to tip. I squeeze just a little and he trembles.

"Oh Sookie," he moans into my mouth. The way he says my name sends a jolt through me causing my walls to clench. A groan escapes my lips as I squeeze my thighs together.

He reaches for the hem of my dress, and in one smooth move, pulls it over my head and throws it across the room. His hands make contact with my skin sending goosebumps down my arms.

His fingers ghost across the quivering flesh of my chest, across my breasts, down my stomach to my panties. His fingers linger at my waistband, teasingly. I jerk at the sensation causing him to growl. He nibbles at my neck, creating a trail of moisture with open mouthed kisses, down to my heaving breasts.

My taut nipples seek out his attention. He reaches behind me to undo my bra, sliding the straps down my arms and it falls to the floor. My full breasts break free and greet the huge hands waiting to hold them. He rolls my nipples between his thumb and forefinger while massaging my breasts. He takes one of my rosy buds into his mouth teasing and flicking it with his expert tongue.

"Delicious…"

My knees give out on me and Eric guides me down onto the bed. His hands trail down my sides stopping at the waistband of my panties. His fingers pause, curling under the fabric, pulling them down my hips. I lift my butt allowing him to pull them all the way off. They vanish before I can moan, "yes…"

The fluttering of his fingers moving up my legs cause me to squeal. They move to the inside of my thighs and I shiver in anticipation. His hand moves over my center. "Ahh…" His fingers dip into my sopping wet folds. He moves them over my slit and up to my nub.

"God Sookie, you are so wet. Can I taste you Sookie?"

I nod yes. Faster than I can tell his head is between my thighs, my knees on his shoulders, his hands under my butt. He slides me a little closer to him, his breath tickling my clit. I close my eyes at the sensation and hear him call my name. "Sookie…" My eyes flutter open and are drawn to his.

I cannot look away as his tongue slips from his mouth barely touching my nub. He flattens his tongue and applies a little pressure just to the tip of my throbbing clit. "Ahh, oh, ungh." The stubble from his beard grazes along my inner thigh as his head moves up and down. My fingers aimlessly look for something to hold onto.

He continues to work me into a frenzy, licking from my slit to my clit. He takes my clit into his mouth sucking, licking, nibbling, flicking. He hums into me with every movement, the vibrations causing my hips to buck.

I thread my fingers through his hair gripping it tighter, pulling him into me, needing him to be as close as he can get. His tongue dips in and out of my center as he squeezes my ass in his hands. I feel my climax building just as he replaces his tongue with one of his fingers. This my body imagined. This my body wants. My hips move in time with the thrusting of his fingers as he brings me to my release. I scream out his name so loud that I think I may lose my voice.

He kisses his way up my thigh, stopping to pay attention to my sides, licking his way up to my breasts. My fingers are still in his hair and I pull his face to mine. I bite his bottom lip, tugging on it, showing him what I want--his mouth on mine. Our lips remain connected as we pull back slightly, gazing into one another's eyes, breathing each other in. The taste of him on my lips is intoxicating.

"Eric…" I breathe. With that one word he knows that I am ready and places himself at my entrance. He pauses then breaks away from me, getting off the bed. He reaches down to the floor bringing with him a square silver wrapper. I watch him roll the condom onto his rock hard dick, and want nothing more than to feel him inside of me. He climbs back onto to the bed, both arms placed on either side of me, keeping the full extent of his weight from pressing down on me. I spread my legs further to ensure no obstacles are in his way.

"I want this Sookie I do but I need to be sure. I need you to be sure."

"Yes Eric. I'm saying yes. Please, I need to feel you inside me. I want you. I want…" My breathing hitches as he guides his tip over my nub to my center, and pushes forth. He moves slowly, pushing in a little and pulling back to allow me time to adjust to his size. I can not believe how amazing he feels. If it feels this good and he isn't all the way in…

"Ungh, unh, ahh…"

The look on his face is one of love and devotion. In this one moment I can feel his love for me. I am completely, totally, and utterly overwhelmed. A tear streams down the side of my face releasing all of the emotion I can't express.

"Shit Sookie, you're so tight. Please tell me if I'm hurting you. I don't want to hurt you."

I moan in response. I have never felt so full, so complete, so whole with another person. I pull my legs up, wrapping them around his hips, allowing him to go deeper. He fills me to capacity, yet I crave more. He methodically rocks his hips back and forth, our pelvis' connecting on each stroke. I move with him, writhing in ecstasy.

He groans with every lunge, my insides pulsing around him. He pulls most of the way out, slamming back into me, shifting his hips with each thrust.

Each new sensation sends chills through my body and I cling to him. Our heartbeats, breathing, moans in sync. I want him closer, deeper until I feel each thrust in my womb, my stomach, my chest.

With each thrust I feel his love for me. His love making is an onslaught of emotions. I (thrust)…love (thrust)…you (thrust)… over and over again.

My nails dig into his ass egging him on. I want him to claim me, make me his in every way. He speeds up on every stroke making me squirm and moan out his name in pleasure.

"Harder, harder, oh yes, harder," I half moaned, half screamed. Eric just smiles at me and complies. He grips my hips tightly, pulling me closer to him, digging his fingertips into my upper thighs. His groans grow louder. Between the feel of him inside me and the noises coming from him, I am in heaven. I am having a sensory overload. I feel that I will lose all control from his grunting…thrusting…licking…thrusting…

A familiar pressure builds in my abdomen, warmth spreading through my body, my walls clench tighter around Eric's dick, and a bliss sweeps over me. "Uh, uh, oh, ERIC!…"

I can feel Eric smiling against my breasts. He slows his thrusts a little as I ride out my orgasm. He picks up the pace once again riding me hard and fast. His groans deepen, his movements become jerkier, his body convulsing. With one final thrust Eric comes with my name on his lips. He nuzzles into my neck, holding me close.

"I love you so much Sookie."

"I…I love you too Eric. I'm sorry it took me so long to realize it but I do." He gazes into my eyes, still hovering over me, his warm body pressed to mine. The pressure of his weight on top of is welcomed. It makes me feel loved, cherished, protected. I hold him to me so he doesn't move. We lay still, holding one another, until I have to excuse myself to use the bathroom. I did not want to move. I kiss him on the temple letting him know I'll be right back.

I return to find Eric waiting for me with open arms. I crawl back into the bed and into his inviting embrace. He holds me close before whispering into my ear, "I want you again." I shiver at his declaration realizing I want him too.

Eric turns me to face him and pulls me onto his lap. I slowly lower myself onto his waiting erection. We could not have been closer to one another in that moment. I arch my back, pressing my breast into his waiting hand, the other caressing the curve of my lower back. His hand moves to my hips, guiding my movements. We are in no rush and move slowly with one another.

We come together, falling back onto the bed, completely sated, satisfied and spent. I look over to Eric searching his blue eyes. He traces my cheek with his fingers, pushing the hair from my face. I close my eyes knowing that this is right. This is where I belong. Eric mumbles something to me before kissing my temple, then the darkness overtakes me.
